Catch Records
Priority fisheries
Catch Rate Analysis
\[ CatchRate_{(i,j)} = \frac{Weight_{(i,j)}}{Fishers_{(i,j)}} \qquad(1)\] Where:
\(i\) = vessels
\(j\) = priority fishery
Annual Production Analysis
\[ TP = \frac{\gamma}{\iota} \times \frac{\omega}{\alpha} \times \kappa \qquad(2)\] Where:
\(\gamma\) = weight
\(\iota\) = boat gear combination
\(\omega\) = active fishing days
\(\alpha\) = Number of days in a month
\(\kappa\) = Total number of fishing effort (boat gear) in a distric
Quantity by district and priority fishery
Quantity by CFMA and priority fishery

Based on the amount of catch data records in the eCAS system, we only selected;
- Six priority fisheries
- Six CFMAS with over 1000 records
